Re: [squid-users] Hotmail and other Ports

Ok, just an update, I've found out that the PC's on the network can access hotmail. What is the difference between the setup of windows and mac? When I try to login on mac it doesn't even log the request. When I was using apache as the server, it worked fine, but now that squid is here, it says can not connect to server, or something like that. I need help. Thanks.
